Overview
Features
- Opportunities are broad enough that each of these backgrounds is valuable for specific subfields within the atmospheric sciences. However, students of atmospheric sciences should have in common a sound background in the fundamentals of physics and applied mathematics and an interest in complex natural phenomena.
- Research projects and graduate courses in the Department of Atmospheric Sciences at University of Washington are closely related, and the well-prepared graduate student may expect to begin research work rather quickly.
